3. <PRODML/> What is it?
A shared solution for information exchange allowing Upstream Oil & Gas Companies more easily execute those software applications used to optimize production
Production optimization involves integrating real time data from specialty, multi-vendor software applications and streamlining work processes to enable oil and gas field operational efficiencies
A project that will develop software products to improve data exchange and work process efficiency in production optimization

5. <PRODML/> Motivation Integration Between Operators & Vendors
Vendors and operators act as systems integrators
Must address issues such as:
Remote maintenance & privacy
Software robustness
Data quality & attributes
Changes in versions
Operator Applications
Vendor #1 Reservoir Simulator
Vendor #4 Optimizer
Vendor #5 Network Model
Vendor #2 Well Model
“Solution”
Integrator
Vendor #6 Reservoir Simulator
Vendor #3 Historian
Vendor #8 Daily Reports
Vendor #7 Alerting Tool
Vendor #9 Collaboration Environment

6. <PRODML/> Motivation Efficiency = time and money
Up till now, oil companies and service providers
wasted time and effort converting common data
PRODML will allow the transfer of production data more easily
saving money across the industry
allowing us to concentrate on the real business, not data management
The Bottom-Line
PRODML is in our business interest

Make it real
Real Problem – water handling
Real Data – used all data from existing field
Real Data Volumes - ~ 1000 producing well and ~ 700 injection wells
Real field time – SCADA (minutes) & well tests (daily)

13. <PRODML/> 2006 Goals when we started
Summary of 2006
End goals
Commercial applications (not a stack of paper)
Change the software landscape in upstream operations
Completion target of September 2006
After September, identify next high value items
Increase Industry participation
PRODML using WITSML model:
End result of PRODML is commercial applications, not a stack of paper
PRODML will alter the software landscape in upstream
Completion of PRODML project is SOON – September
The plan is to identify next high value need for data exchange at end of PRODML to ensure forward motion
Tackling production optimization is the toughest & number one issue
Next standards will likely be easier.
Example: Reporting would have been easier
How can you be involved?
